Q&A

Q: Is Mindy Kaling getting another TV show soon? I miss her.

Wishing another series on Mindy Kaling would be more like a curse right now. When would she find the time to do it?

The former star, head writer and producer of "The Mindy Project," which wrapped last year after six seasons, is pretty busy these days, despite no longer having a starring TV role.

For example, she actually has two TV shows on the go right now, just not (yet) as the star.

She wrote, produced and occasionally guest-starred in "Champions," a sitcom that debuted earlier this year on NBC. And just last month, Hulu (the web streaming channel that picked up "The Mindy Project" after Fox dropped it) announced it would produce Kaling's proposed TV version of "Four Weddings and a Funeral," the big-screen hit romantic comedy from 1994.

There's been no official word on whether she'll star in that series or just write or produce it, but it's already pretty well stuffed with producers -- Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner, who co-produced the original film, will produce the series as well.

Kaling also just did that little movie "Ocean's 8." And by "little," of course I mean one of the most anticipated films of this year. She co-starred in the female-led reboot of the "Ocean's" franchise made famous first by Frank Sinatra and the Rat Pack, and more recently by George Clooney and friends.

Indeed, she's been devoting a lot of her precious time to films lately. She also appeared in the Disney production of the classic children's book "A Wrinkle in Time" earlier this year -- opposite Oprah Winfrey, no less.

And she's got another big-screener coming down the pike. She'll star in the indie comedy "Late Night," based on her own screenplay and also starring screen greats Emma Thompson and John Lithgow. That one's just starting production, with a projected release sometime next year.
